Since graduating from the Ashland Institute of Massage in 2009, David has been dedicated to helping clients alleviate pain from injuries, stress, car accidents, and general body discomfort while promoting overall physical and mental well-being.

An avid athlete with experience in football and basketball, David has personally faced and overcome significant injuries, including full reconstructive surgery on his right foot and ankle, which resulted in a 30% loss of range of motion. Despite this challenge, David regained 15% of his range of motion through a combination of massage therapy and Pilates, allowing him to return to basketball and other sports. This experience fueled his passion for massage therapy and its benefits, leading him to pursue a career in this field.

David has accumulated over 1,300 hours of training and is fully certified in various massage modalities, including Swedish, Deep Tissue, Trigger Point, and Sports Massage. He also holds a certification in Kinesio Taping. His diverse client base ranges from preteens to the elderly, and his background in weightlifting and sports provides him with a unique perspective on body mechanics. David's teaching experience drives his commitment to educating clients on the benefits of massage therapy and empowering them to continue their self-care beyond their sessions.
